Around the world, researchers are working extremely hard to develop new treatments and interventions for COVID-19 with new clinical trials opening nearly every day. This directory provides you with information, including enrollment detail, about these trials. In some cases, researchers are able to offer expanded access (sometimes called compassionate use) to an investigational drug when a patient cannot participate in a clinical trial.
The information provided here is drawn from ClinicalTrials.gov. If you do not find a satisfactory expanded access program here, please search in our COVID Company Directory. Some companies consider expanded access requests for single patients, even if they do not show an active expanded access listing in this database. Please contact the company directly to explore the possibility of expanded access.
Emergency INDs
To learn how to apply for expanded access, please visit our Guides designed to walk healthcare providers, patients and/or caregivers through the process of applying for expanded access. Please note that given the situation with COVID-19 and the need to move as fast as possible, many physicians are requesting expanded access for emergency use. In these cases, FDA will authorize treatment by telephone and treatment can start immediately. For more details, consult FDA guidance. Emergency IND is the common route that patients are receiving convalescent plasma.
Search Tips
To search this directory, simply type a drug name, condition, company name, location, or other term of your choice into the search bar and click SEARCH. For broadest results, type the terms without quotation marks; to narrow your search to an exact match, put your terms in quotation marks (e.g., “acute respiratory distress syndrome” or “ARDS”). You may opt to further streamline your search by using the Status of the study and Intervention Type options. Simply click one or more of those boxes to refine your search.

Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of a Single Dose of STI-2020 (COVI-AMG™) to Treat COVID-19
Subjects will receive a single injection of 40, 100, or 200 mg COVI-AMG or placebo via IV push.
Stanford University
This study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of treatment with related donor Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) matched or haploidentical allogeneic T regulatory cells in patients with COVID 19 induced ARDS. Study treatment will be administered in 1 to 2 doses, with the possibility of a second infusion given 14 days after the initial infusion.
Sorrento Therapeutics, Inc.
This study investigates the safety, pharmacokinetic (PK) profile and efficacy of a single injection of COVI-AMG in outpatient adults with mild COVID-19 symptoms.
Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile
The study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of two vaccination schedules of an inactivated vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 infection in adults. Two doses of the vaccine will be administered in a 0,14 and a 0,28-day schedule. Follow-up of safety and efficacy will be assessed for 12 months after the first dose. Immunogenicity will be studied in a subgroup of participants.
CureVac
The primary objective of the randomized observer-blinded phase 2b/3 part of this trial is to demonstrate the efficacy of a 2-dose schedule of CVnCoV in the prevention of first episodes of virologically-confirmed cases of COVID-19 of any severity in SARS-CoV-2 naïve participants. The primary objective of the open-label phase of this trial is to evaluate safety in all participants ≥ 18 years of age remaining in the trial after unblinding.
Shanghai Fosun Pharmaceutical Industrial Development Co. Ltd.
This is a phase II, randomized, placebo-controlled, observer-blinded study of the safety and immunogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccine (BNT162b2) in Chinese healthy population. After randomization, the trial for each participant will last for approximately 13 months. Screening period is 2 weeks prior to randomization (Day -14 to Day 0), and two doses of either SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (BNT162b2) or placebo will be given intramuscularly (IM) separated by 21 days.
Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority
The mRNA-1273 vaccine is being developed to prevent COVID-19, the disease resulting from Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) infection. The study is designed to primarily evaluate the safety, reactogenicity, and effectiveness of mRNA-1273 vaccine administered as primary series and a booster dose (BD) to an adolescent population. The study will also evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of an mRNA-1273.222 vaccine against the SARS-CoV- 2 omicron variant as a primary series.

A Phase III Clinical Trial to Determine the Safety and Efficacy of ZF2001 for Prevention of COVID-19
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled international multicenter clinical trial design will be adopted. A total of 29,000 subjects aged 18 years and above are planned to be recruited, including 750 subjects aged 18-59 years and 250 subjects aged 60 years and above in China; 21,000 subjects aged 18-59 years and 7,000 subjects aged 60 years and above will be recruited outside China. Safety and immunogenicity will be evaluated among the Chinese subjects, and efficacy, immunogenicity and safety will be evaluated among the subjects outside China. Among them, 750 subjects aged 18-59 and 250 subjects aged 60 and above from outside China and all subjects from China will be selected as the immunogenicity subgroup for immunogenicity bridging study. The IgG levels of SARS-COV-2 neutralizing antibody and RBD protein binding antibody will be detected by blood sampling before vaccination, 14 days and 6 months after full course of vaccination to evaluate the immunogenicity and immune persistence.

Currently there are no proven treatments or vaccines for COVID-19 and care of the COVID patients is largely supportive involving treatment of symptoms such as fever with antipyretics, secondary bacterial chest infection with antibiotics and meticulous management of comorbid conditions. Several repurposed and new drugs have been investigated for treatment of COVID-19, however, none have been confirmed to be efficacious. These drugs include the antimalarials (chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine), antivirals such as remdesivir and favipiravir and antiretroviral combination therapies such lopinavir/ritonavir. There is emerging evidence to support the use of COVID convalescent plasma for the treatment of COVID-19. There is need to leverage the blood transfusion services in countries and this is beginning to happen on the continent.
Bandim Health Project
Background: The virus SARS-CoV-2 has spread rapidly throughout the world. Seniors are at high risk of severe COVID-19 when infected. Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) is a vaccine against tuberculosis, with protective non-specific effects against other infections; significant reductions in morbidity and mortality have been reported, and a plausible immunological mechanism has been identified: "trained innate immunity". The investigators hypothesize that BCG vaccination can reduce the risk of COVID-19 and other infections among senior citizens during the COVID-19 pandemic. Objectives: Primary objective: To reduce senior citizens' risk of acute infection during the COVID-19 pandemic. Secondary objectives: To reduce senior citizens' risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection during the COVID-19 pandemic. To reduce senior citizens' risk of self-reported respiratory illness during the COVID-19 pandemic. Study design: A placebo-controlled randomized trial. Study population: 1900 seniors 65 years of age or above. Intervention: Participants will be randomized 1:1 to intradermal administration of a standard dose of BCG vaccine or placebo (saline). Outcomes: Primary outcome: "Acute infection" identified either by a doctor, antibiotics use, hospitalization, or death due to infection. Secondary outcomes: Verified SARS-CoV-2 infection and self-reported respiratory illness. With an expected incidence of "acute infection" of 20%, the trial can show a 25% risk reduction in the the intervention group versus the placebo group by including a total of 1900 individuals, 950 individuals in each group. Risk for participants and impact: Based on previous experience and randomized controlled trials in adult and elderly individuals, the risks of BCG vaccination are considered low. If BCG can reduce the risk of acute infection in seniors by 25% it has tremendous public health importance, both during the COVID-19 pandemic and overall.
